research Genes for intermediate filament proteins and the draft sequence of the human genome
The study found 65 intermediate filament genes, including new keratins, and suggested updating keratin naming.
research Prolactin—a novel neuroendocrine regulator of human keratin expressionin situ
Prolactin affects the production of different keratins in human hair, which could lead to new treatments for skin and hair disorders.
research Protein disulphide isomerase-mediated grafting of cysteine-containing peptides onto over-bleached hair
PDI helps restore over-bleached hair's strength and structure by attaching special peptides.
research Paraproteinemic keratopathy: recognizing the ocular significance
Paraproteinemic keratopathy can show eye symptoms before other signs of disease, needing careful treatment and long-term follow-up.
research A Splice Site Mutation in the Gene of the Human Type I Hair Keratin hHa1 Results in the Expression of a Tailless Keratin Isoform
A genetic mutation in the hHa1 gene creates a smaller, but still functional, hair protein without causing hair problems.
research Cytokeratin expression in trichoblastic fibroma (small nodular type trichoblastoma), trichoepithelioma and basal cell carcinoma
Trichoblastic fibroma and basal cell carcinoma are similar but different from trichoepithelioma.
research A Mouse Model for Conditional Expression of Activated β-Catenin in Epidermal Keratinocytes
Activated β-catenin affects hair growth and skin thickness, and changes are reversible.
research The Excretion of Pantothenic Acid in Patients with Achromotrichia and Alopecia
Patients with hair pigment loss and hair loss may have altered pantothenic acid metabolism.
research pH Dependence of the Coiled-Coil Structure of Keratin Intermediate Filament in Human Hair by 13C NMR Spectroscopy and the Mechanism of Its Disruption
Keratin structure in hair is stable at pH 5-6 but disrupts between pH 6-7.
research In-silico analysis of papain fibrinolytic mechanism from Carica papaya
Papain from papaya may help treat cardiovascular diseases by breaking down fibrin.
research The mouse keratin 6 isoforms are differentially expressed in the hair follicle, footpad, tongue and activated epidermis
Mouse keratin 6 isoforms have different expression patterns in various tissues.
research Hypertrichosis of the pinnae in a patient using panitumumab
Panitumumab can cause excessive ear hair growth.
research Keratosis pilaris with adjacent haemosiderin deposition: a clue to scurvy
A man's skin condition and poor diet led to a scurvy diagnosis.
research Keratinisation status and cytokeratins of the human Meibomian gland epithelium
Hyper-keratinisation in Meibomian glands contributes to gland dysfunction.
research The overview of the cosmetic exfoliants composition for keratosis pilaris skincare
This document reviews the composition of cosmetic exfoliants for keratosis pilaris skincare, analyzing 50 body scrubs from pharmacies, online, and specialized stores. It identifies 28 mechanical and 22 chemical exfoliants, with chemical exfoliants containing salicylic or glycolic acid being more effective for reducing transepidermal water loss and enhancing skin exfoliation. The study finds that 62% of products use plastic packaging and categorizes products into three price ranges, with most mechanical exfoliants in the lowest range (up to €15/100 ml or g). The review suggests chemical exfoliants, particularly those with glycolic acid, are potentially effective for keratosis pilaris, but further clinical studies are needed for reliable efficacy assessment.
research RSPO1-mutated keratinocytes from palmoplantar keratoderma display impaired differentiation, alteration of cell–cell adhesion, EMT-like phenotype and invasiveness properties: implications for squamous cell carcinoma susceptibility in patients with 46XX disorder of sexual development
RSPO1 mutations in certain patients lead to skin cells that don't develop properly and are more likely to become invasive, increasing the risk of skin cancer.
research Experimental and Finite Element Analysis of a Residual Hair Keratin‐based Hydrogel with Calcium for Atorvastatin Sequestration, Release, and In Vitro Activity
Keratin-based hydrogels with calcium are effective for delivering anti-fibrotic drugs.

Collagen peptides may boost skin and hair-related gene expression.
research Breast cancer resistance protein identifies clonogenic keratinocytes in human interfollicular epidermis
ABCG2 protein marks stem-like skin cells in human epidermis.
research Plakophilin 1 suppresses keratinocyte innate immune responses through DExD/H helicases
Plakophilin 1 helps control skin cell immune responses to prevent excessive inflammation.
